CURRENT MISSION To see all the beauty the world has to offer... ABOUT ME 26 years old, silly, energetic, passionate born and raised in a small US town. I want to experience different cultures and meet as many people as I can. "Nothing of me is orginal. I am the combined effort of everybody I have ever known." ~Chuck Palahnuik After putting in 60 plus hours in the business field, I have realized that its not for me and have decided to undergo a career change. I want to be a teacher so that I can make a difference in someones life, and travel in the summers. Wahoo! PHILOSOPHY Experience something new everyday. Don't overwork yourself. I believe that life is so precious and you shouldnt live to work, but instead work enough to get by and experience as much as you can. The times I have learned the most about myself, has been times I have been out of my comfort zone.
